Aaron Judge has been awe-inspiring since the start of the season and it’s far from over. In addition to finding himself at the height of the race for the Triple Crown, the Judge is in pursuit of the American League home run record held by Roger Maris.
And the big outfielder will be able to match and surpass this historic mark at home as the New York Yankees begin a six-game streak in the Bronx.
The main interested party would like to achieve this feat in front of these supporters, but victory remains the ultimate goal.
“If that happens in a win, that would be great. Having the chance to do it at home would be awesome too. We’ll talk if that time ever comes. “
We can expect Yankee Stadium to be filled to capacity over the next week and the atmosphere there to be at its height. And Gerrit Cole knows it very well.
“The fans are going to be on the edge of their seat. There will be beer flying everywhere. It will not be a child-friendly environment in the stands. It’s gonna be crazy. “
Manager Aaron Boone also expects the Yankees home to be electrifying.
“It should be really special. We’re in a divisive race and with Judge there’s a buzz extra every time he shows up. It is an event. “
It will likely be the loudest stadium Bronx Bombers fans have seen since 2019 when it hosted Championship Series games. A very good week is therefore announced in New York. Let’s enjoy the moment.
